Content

This course unit constitutes a preparation for understanding and using new technologies in the rehabilitation sciences (e.g., eHeath, teleHealth, mHealth; Virtual Reality; Robotics, end effector, exoskeleton; wearable sensors; Serious games; PROs and EMA)

Given the rapid development of this field, a particular interest of this lecture will be to train students to develop critical thinking about the development of new technology through direct discussion with companies and searching the relevant information in the literature (SWOT).

New technology developments will be introduced through demonstration and learning paths.
